100% Michael Jackson: The King of Pop Steps Into the DJ Booth

Beatport delivers an essential collection for DJs working with the Michael Jackson and Jackson 5 legacy. This 33-track chart is far more than a nostalgia compilation — it is a professional DJ tool built for the dance floor, pairing Original Mix and Intro versions of each title side by side to streamline transitions without losing a beat of momentum.

The BPM range is deliberately wide — from 91 BPM on I'll Be There to 139 BPM on Beat It — making this selection versatile material for nu disco, electro-funk, and melodic house crossover sets. The Epic/Legacy catalogue pillars arrive in pristine form: the 2012 Remaster of Smooth Criminal retains every ounce of its cinematic tension in A minor at 118 BPM, while Billie Jean in F# minor at 117 BPM remains one of the most hypnotic grooves ever committed to tape, its syncopated bassline anticipating decades of dance music production.

Technical highlights from the tracklist:

Beat It (Original Mix) — 139 BPM in Eb minor: the only cut brushing electro-rock territory, ideal for peak-time moments in accelerated nu disco sets.
Thriller (Steve Aoki Midnight Hour Remix) — 125 BPM in Db minor: the sole contemporary reread in the chart, pushing the classic toward the modern dance floor with festival-ready production.
Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough — 119 BPM in B major at 6:05 min: the longest version in the set, perfect for building sustained tension through its layered funk-disco percussion.
Don't Matter To Me (ft. Drake) — 103 BPM in G minor: the most contemporary entry, with trap/future bass DNA that bridges eras seamlessly in an eclectic set.

The inclusion of the Jackson 5 catalogue in the final stretch — ABC, I Want You Back, Dancing Machine — adds historical depth and opens the door to DJ narratives tracing the sound from Motown to the MTV era. An essential chart for event programmers, retro-futuristic nights, or anyone who simply wants the full Jackson archive ready for the right moment on the floor.
